Placed by: MountainScorpia

Placed on International Talk Like A Pirate Day - September 19.

Ahoy, maties! Thar's a treasure be waitin' for ye high over the French
Broad's
waters. But only a scurvy bilge rat or a landlubber would try this after a
squall, or with more wee lads an' lasses than he can grab at one time, or
without outfittin' in some land-grabbin' pirate boots. This ain't for no
flatlander tursts, neither, but the views from the crow's nest is worth all
the
dubloons in yer pockets an' then some.

If ye be lookin' for the mine o' silver, yer on the right trail. Ye can find
yer
booty hoistin' yerself up the switchin' rocky face along the Broad, but it
ain't
fun in the sun.

Any bung hole can figger out when he's reached the top o' the mizzen mast,
because the cap'n ordered shingles lashed to the masts directin' the crowds.
Avast! Ye must spy the rocky prow that points to the white castle on the
shores
below. There are but two large rocks to shinny over, and one smaller one,
and
wedged behind the third large rock and a wee saplin', thar's a heavy rock
the
color of bloody milk holding down the treasure chest.

Blackbeard's curse on the filthy lubber what don't kivver up the chest like
'e
found 'er, or lets be known its whereabouts. Arrrrrr!
